Description
A dragon hunter bound by oath and armored in silence, Yeva has spent years perfecting the art of slaying—yet never once felt she truly belonged. Sent to the fiercely independent kingdom of Quanbao, where dragons are rumored to be loved and worshipped rather than feared, she arrives hunting a legendary beast said to be hidden behind the borders. There, she meets Lady Sookhee, a monarch whose warmth and mystery force Yeva to confront the person she buried beneath duty. As Yeva’s search unfolds, her guarded devotion collides with the possibility of chosen family, queer intimacy, and a new definition of home. Neon Yang blends sweeping, Asian-inspired epic-fantasy energy with intimate character focus, delivering a luminous novella about identity, faith, and the courage to step out of the armor.
